Who cares who published your book?

Zoe Winters is a romance writer and blogger. She says, “The average reader doesn’t care how a book gets to market. If the book is good, it doesn't matter if your Chihuahua published it.”



Author and blogger S.G. Royle wrote, “People don't buy books from publishers. They buy them from authors.”



Edward Uhlan founded Exposition Press -- an early and important pay-to-publish company -- in 1936. He said, “Most people can’t tell the difference between a vanity book and a trade book anyway. A book is a book.”



On the other hand, many booksellers and reviewers can tell the difference and do care -- and may reject a book solely because of its publisher.
